(Think: facials, tea parties, shopping challenges.) During eight fun and easy-to-plan dates you and your daughter will tackle many questions including:

Just what is real physical beauty? What's the source of beauty? How can I feel it? Why do I have to dress modestly? So, how do I know if I'm dressed modestly? Who is most likely to influence my sense of style, for good or for bad? Am I enhancing or distracting from my beauty that’s inside?

Secret Keeper Girl goes deeply into the heart. After all, God says what's on the inside is what really counts. Help your daughter to get her internal wardrobe to be "all that!" (Oh, and you won't mind if we treat you both to a facial while we're at it, will you?) The kit includes: an easy to use mother's planning guide, a cool daughter's diary, a CD to enhance your travel time featuring Dannah Gresh and Rebecca St. James, and SKG stickers—just for fun.

In Passion and Purity, Elisabeth Elliot emphasizes the need to commit daily to Christ all matters of the heart and to wait upon Him. She teaches this often painful yet rewarding discipline by candidly tracing her love story with Jim Elliot as evidence that she has been there. Through letters, diary entries, and memories, she shares the temptations, difficulties, victories, and sacrifices of two young people whose commitment to Christ took priority over their love for each other.
